Angelina was born about 1814/15 based on her age at death (6 years or in her 6th year), the daughter of John Paxson and Angelina Lanning.
Note: The WPA listing for Ewing Church Cemetery indicates that there were two separate stones for children of J. & A. Paxson: an Angelina who died 12/7/1820, aged 6; and an Angelina who died 4/19/1826, aged 5. I believe memorial #124570281 conflates these two inscriptions. Birth dates were not typically included on children's gravestones at that time; and I have seen no evidence to suggest that there was or is a single stone including both dates (1820 & 1826) for the same child.
